MARICH JHAPI, 1978-79: TORTURED HUMANITY
A documentary film that exposes official India's cruelest secret
(1 hour, 5 minutes; English)
In one of the least known instances of State persecution of backward
communities and displaced population groups in post-Independence
India, the Left Front government of West Bengal in 1978-79 massacred
unknown hundreds of refugees from the erstwhile East Pakistan after
promising them an alternate homeland. This gargantuan crime against
humanity was done away from media glare, yet word of it got out and
has found a place in Bengal's oral tradition as the Marich Jhapi
massacre. Though scholars and writers like Ross Mallick, Udayan
Namboodiri, Annu Jalais and Amitav Ghosh have highlighted it in their
works, no film maker had dared to come forward to document this
tragedy.
A Kolkata-based film maker, Tushar Bhattacharjee, has unraveled for
the first time the machinations and brutality that preceded the Marich
Jhapi massacre by catching up with relatives of the victims, survivors
and even the perpetrators.
